Fukuon Haru

Fukuon Haru is a derivative made from official Vocaloid Kagamine Len. His name means "Tremolo of springtime".

Design
Haru has an eclectic design, based on traditional Japanese clothing (i.e. kimono/yukata). He wears a light gray scarf around his neck. On the cuffs of his trousers and sleeves are four ovoid gems: a sapphire on his right sleeve, an emerald on his left, a turquoise on his left leg, and a gray gemstone of some kind on his right leg. His light blue hair is tied upward into a ponytail similar to Kagamine Len. "Spinland-The-Sixth" notes that the design resembles KAITO's. Haru is said to be 'unusually tall' and 'so thin he could snap in two- literally'.

Voice
Haru has two voice banks: his default voicebank, and his 'Soft Voice Material' voicebank. His default voicebank is somewhat unique, as it was designed with the express purpose of strong vocals in lower registers (i.e. below C3). He can produce a satisfactory low masculine tone, but has pronunciation problems; specifically, he puts emphasis on the 'p', 'g', 'd', and 'b' consonants, and sometimes will put high attack on the syllable 'ra', which can be fixed by shortening the note and making the note before it longer. Haru's 'Soft Voice Material' has a lighter, raspier tone to it, and can handle gentler songs, while experiencing similar problems to Haru's default voicebank. The 'Soft Voice Material' cannot maintain as strong a vocal in lower ranges as Haru's default bank. Overall, Haru is slightly less of a challenge to use than Kagamine Len, but not one without some frustration.

Personality
Haru is a 'Kuudere', meaning he alternates between periods of sweetness/cheerfulness and aloof behavior. Despite this, he takes problems seriously, and cares for his adoptive sister, KDV-01F Serutori, or 'Seru' (vocal configuration listed here). He looks up to Megurine Luka, but dislikes eggplants, leading to tense relations with Kamui Gakupo. An odd quirk of Haru is the high lead content in his blood. This renders him strangely prone to lightning strikes and electric shocks- however, they do not harm him much for some reason. Haru, much like his sister, loves video cassettes and DVDs (their shared character item is a VHS player). His favorite kinds of TV programming are kid's cartoons and "The Twilight Zone". His creator has made a deviantART page where you can ask Haru questions, which will give more information on him as time passes.

Biography
Haru was originally designed as an UTAU, but due to microphone troubles and laziness, he was given a place as a Fanmade Vocaloid. At some point, he was adopted by Seru as her younger brother. He and Seru live together, while they struggle to keep the house clean, pay the bills, and escape from the parties other Vocaloids hold at their house (usually culminating in an emptied fridge, several fractures in the fabric of reality, and Godzilla fighting Anguirus) with their sanity intact. He hates math tests -after all, Vocaloids have to go to school like everyone else, and has a crush on AH-Software's Vocaloid3 Yuzuki Yukari.

Trivia

 * Haru's official and unofficial designs can be viewed on the pages of 'Spinland-The-Sixth' and 'arcen-una' on DeviantArt, respectively.
 * Haru's thin build is such that he appears slightly anorexic- as such, he is heavily offended when people mention this.
 * The high lead content of Haru's blood, and his subsequent tendency to be struck by lightning, is a homage to the character Misery from a cartoon called Ruby Gloom.
